Minority Leader in Parliament, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, has noted that the protestors involved in the #OccupyBoG demonstration would only hand over their petition to the Governor of the Central Bank, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson.

Engaging the press today during the protest, the Minority leader noted that no other staff would be engaged.

Should Dr Addison fail to receive the petition, the protestors have pledged to remain at the Central Bank until he does so.

“I together with the leadership of the NDC Minority in Parliament must be allowed to walk to the Central Bank to present a petition that should be received by the Governor himself.

“He must be the one to receive our petition. We won’t just hand it over to him; we will read it to his hearing. And we will demand his exit today.

“If he fails to exit, there will be a series of actions against him. Then we will not leave there,” Dr Ato Forson said.

The Minority has expressed dissatisfaction over the unauthorized printing of over GH¢80 billion by the central bank for the Akufo-Addo government.

According to the Minority, the Central Bank, by so doing, has pushed some 850,000 Ghanaians into poverty. They therefore have called for the removal of Dr Ernest Addison.
